KNF appeals

Imphal, February 16 : Noting the alleged controversies surrounding recognition of tribes under Kuki family and sensing the sensitive nature of the issue, the Kuki National Front (KNF) has appealed to all concerned individuals/organisations not to make any press release or publication or any sort of programme on the issue/subject.

A press release issued by the outfit's information and publicity secretary LH Stephen also urged upon the relevant Government Department not to issue any tribe certificate to any tribe belonging to Kuki family.

It also asked all Government Departments not to make any recruitment on the basis of such certificates.

It further said that this prohibition order is issued in the interest of the people considering the alleged sensitive nature of the issue.
